Business Challenges. Some Age-old and Some Brand New
Today’s businesses face a host of business challenges. The forces driving change are many and various. Disruptive technology, the rise of new business models, and the pressures exerted by intense global competition are transforming the marketplace.
“Culture and employee engagement are the most important issues facing organisations, research by Deloitte shows, with 8 out of 10 citing lack of employee engagement as their top challenge”
For years, psychologists turned to cognitive ability – intelligence – as a predictor of job performance. But intelligence alone is only part of the story, say researchers. Conscientiousness, creativity, integrity, thoroughness and co-operation also play major roles in a person’s job suitability and productivity.
The Bottom Line:
“Personality, rather than intelligence, predicts success!”

A Market Leading Behavioural Profiling System Built to Transform the Effectiveness of Business Teams
In simplest terms, DISC is an invaluable behavioural profiling system that teaches users how to identify— and use to their advantage— the predictable aspects of communication. Based on the research of Dr. William Moulton Marston, DISC is the most widely-used behaviour profiling tool of its kind, supported by decades of research and continuous validation.
“Co-workers are like family. Most of the time, you don’t get to choose them and there will inevitably be people around with whom you naturally clash. By understanding your own [style] and the people style you’re dealing with, you can establish rapport with someone more easily, become more persuasive, and avoid miscommunication…”
- Business Insider, May 2013
It's Not a Secret: People Prefer to Interact with People They Like
The ability to create rapport is a fundamental skill in sales, management, executive-level leadership and everyday life. The goal of DISC is to help users first build, then maximise productive relationships. You do not have to change your personality; you simply need to recognise what drives other people and understand your options for effectively dealing with them.
Our DISC reports are as much prescriptive as they are descriptive. In other words, our DISC reports are unique because they teach users specific skills to improve their own interpersonal interactions. While our reports do go into considerable detail describing users’ natural DISC behavioural style, we believe this is really just the first step. Our reports empower users with specific recommendations unique to their individual profile. When utilised, these skills have the ability to enact powerful and demonstrable returns. To see significant professional and interpersonal benefit, we believe it’s important that our DISC users come away with fast, effective learning strategies that demonstrate immediate results.
